The goal of Honigman’s Class Actions practice is to facilitate the best business solution for our clients, every time. Daunting in size and scope, a class action lawsuit can undermine your business by threatening significant or catastrophic losses; impugning your reputation in the marketplace; disrupting commercial activities; and shaking the confidence of customers, shareholders, lenders, and other stakeholders. The defense of such lawsuits requires business-driven solutions, in addition to sound legal strategy and execution.
Relying on the legal skills and practical knowledge we have gained in the defense of scores of class action lawsuits filed in courts around the country, we approach your situation with a nuanced understanding of your business, your industry, and the specific challenges presented by these unwelcome claims. Regardless of the nature of the claims asserted, we work to solve your problem, not just shepherd the case through the courts, and we do so in a fashion that maximizes value without compromising results.
We have used cutting-edge strategies and aggressive litigation techniques to defeat class certification or attack the viability of the underlying claims to win early victories in multiple cases. In others, we have successfully defended class actions through discovery to victories at summary judgment and appeal. And in the most intractable cases, we have a track record of achieving creative settlements that beat the benchmarks for similar cases that have settled nationwide and that allow our clients to successfully manage the financial ramifications of class liability.
Our depth and breadth of experience with nationwide commercial class actions sets us apart from other firms of our size. We have successfully defended clients in a wide breadth of industries that cut across all major sectors. We have served as lead counsel in multistate and multi-defendant class actions, as counsel in multi-district litigation, and as lead counsel in nationwide class actions. And we have done so in dozens of courts throughout the U.S.
